REVEALING EXTERNALITIES
True Cost Accounting (TCA) is an evolving holistic and systemic approach to measure and value the positive and negative environmental, social, health and economic costs and benefits to facilitate business, consumer, investor and/or policy decisions.
This definition was the result of a consensus-driven process by conveners of the UN Food Systems Summit independent dialogue on TCA in 2021, building on earlier work establishing the core elements of TCA via the UN Environment Programme’s comprehensive 2018 TCA framework.
What we're doing
The TCA Dialogue Series and Summit aims to sharpen the focus on, and align the community behind, the work remaining to achieve the transition to healthy and resilient agrifood systems by mainstreaming TCA. With its history of success and role as a trusted convener for the TCA community, the TCA Accelerator will shepherd this vision into a reality.
Scaling Implementation will occur over two days at the FAO in Rome, Italy. Registration is now open. All attendees must check-in at the security building both days, allow extra travel time.
